Highlights the rare occurrence of recurrent very late stent thrombosis beyond 1 year after bare-metal stent implantation.
Alerts clinicians to rare recurrent very late stent thrombosis after bare-metal stent; leaves open need for prospective data on incidence and prevention.

Although much attention has been paid for late stent thrombosis, long-term outcome of patients who developed late stent thrombosis is not clear. We report a case of recurrent very late stent thrombosis after bare-metal stent implantation.
